Location

Lake Creek starts at the base of Mt. McKinley and runs 65 miles to the Yentna River. It is a clear, gravel-bottom river where all species of Pacific Salmon flock to spawn each year. Our lodge sits approximately 1.5 miles from the mouth of Lake Creek.
Your private Alaskan fishing guide will customize your trip to suit your individual style. Jet sleds allow us to fish the lower 8 miles of Lake Creek as well as various other clear-water tributaries of the Yentna River
